ITT: We Discuss New Classes and Jobs

[Enkidoh]

My idea?

Get rid of classes and focus soly on jobs. Then we can never need worry about a class hindering the uniqueness of a job ever again!

This won't happen as the Armoury System is too much an engrained part of the game (it's even mentioned specifically on the FFXIV website - it's a selling point of the game).

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Yoshi-P actually ask us of this when he first took over FFXIV's reins - whether the Armoury System should be scrapped and a FFIII/V/XI style Job system replace it, or retain it but add Jobs onto the existing classes. 1.0 players voted overwhelmingly to keep the existing system, and hence classes were modified to allow them to fit better in with Jobs that extended from it.

If you don't like it, that's democracy for you - 1.0 players spoke and the current system is the result, even if not everyone agrees with it. You just have to accept it and move on. Really, the class-Job Armoury System is a lot like the system in the original FF, where you have a starting Job and then upgrade to an advanced one halfway through the game. A little perspective is what's needed.
